Panel de Pon (パネルでポン Paneru de Pon, literally "Pong in the Panels"), now known as Tetris Attack, was released for the Super Famicom on October 27, 1995, starring a young fairy known as Lip. However, the game didn't actually make it to the West as-is. For the Western release, Nintendo changed all the characters to Yoshi characters and enemies and renamed it.

Aside from the Yoshi motif, there were other gameplay changes, such as a password system for the story mode and Garbage Blocks were not customized for each character, unlike Panel de Pon.
